mk – A TeX and LaTeX maker

mk is a Bash script that, in close col­lab­o­ra­tion with
vpp (short for View and Print
PDF/PostScript), is help­ful in the cyclic pro­cess of edit­ing,
com­pil­ing, view­ing, and print­ing a LaTeX, X∃LaTeX, or plain
TeX doc­u­ment. Essen­tially, mk uses
tex­i2dvi for com­pi­la­tion,
vpp for view­ing and print­ing.
